Yeah, yeah, I know I should be asking a doctor or a pharmacist. BUT, I want to know about people's experiences.Has anyone had this combo and drank alcohol? Is it OK? Did you have any bad side effects?I want to drink but want to know what will happen if I do. What if I don't take any antidepressants for a few days?



ALCOHOL PRISTIQ and Wellbutrin: is it OK?

my anxiety is bad to the point I will shake all the time ( my hands & arms ) & my heart beat will get really fast, I'll start sweating too. I'll be thinking people are staring at me & they think bad & my heart beat goes off the wall. I'll start looking & then looking away, look down at the ground. This happens everyday for the past couple years. I was on xanax & it helped A lot but it didn't last long enough. I was on Klonopin too but it wasn't strong enough to help much. I've been on tons of anti-depressants, like zoloft, wellbutrin & alot more. Someone mentioned Xanax extended release. Would this help..or what might help for what's happening to me?



Is xanax a good medication for my problems?

My brother wants off his meds. He says they make him feel like a zombie - he's actually being dramatic, because he can laugh, pout, guilt and get angry just like he used to.He was on Paxil and yes, he did use weed. His psychiatrist said that her field was unsure if Paxil caused bipolar in patients or brought out an already existing condition in full force. She also pointed out that the marijuana helped the effects heighten. He was really overdoing it.He stopped drinking two weeks ago. He used to drink heavily once a week, sometimes more - and would receive the lowest of lows for DAYS. And he was convinced his pills were not working. Once he stopped drinking for those two weeks, we saw an immediate change in him - sure, he was still depressed because of his previous hospitalization and consequential pills he had to take for the rest of his life, but there was a different air about him.Now, I read that people who are bipolar have been med-free - as long as they exercise, eat well, no alcohol, nicotine, or caffeine - meditate and think positive and work through their depressions and let the mania stages pass as they would; being sure to drink calming, soothing teas so that they would be able to sleep a full night's rest, to ensure no psychosis.Now, before Paxil and weed, he was fine. Like he had swings in mood - he was very depressed once he hit his teens and had to begin taking antidepressents and meds for general anxiety. But I think this was in general a mindset that was brought out from being moved from place to place. My brother needs a ground stone in life, he is one of those people that needs stability and routine - he was not getting that in his teens, so his depression and then anxiety developed to high levels (anxiety I think was caused by his depression, which kept him inside and isolated in his room, or around the house only - his mind got too unused to the outside and all its stimulation, so that when we did go outside, he freaked out).Anyway, he is 26 now. He was always a marijuana user, a mild one for a long time - he was fine with Effexor and all the other antidepressents, but then Paxil came - and only five, six months it took and he went into mania, hypermania than a psychoisis. It was his first one, the psychosis I mean, and the hypermania.My brother drank pepsi by the case, he loved it. Smoked cigs, too, heavily. And used marijuana when he had some. Then Paxil came. And suddenly, he's bipolar and in need of medication for life.I'm just saying, the doctor said people with bipolar react strongly to caffeine and alcohol and drugs like marijuana. He would, mind you, get weird with alcohol, mainly violent speech, but he never knew when to stop when he started drinking, so that was probably the case, plus he was dealing with teenage angst on those times. But that's just it, if he was bipolar for his whole life, as she said he must have been, then he would have reacted unfavourably to all those things. He never did! He slept well, too. Then, again Paxil was prescribed because Effexor was causing unfavourable symptoms (he was getting what he said felt like electric brain shocks that made him jerk and convulse painfully) and messed him all up.SO. He wants off his pills. He does not want to take Zyprexa or Wellbutrin. He wants to wean himself off, because he believes he is not bipolar, if he is, it is slight (it actually runs on both sides). If he has only had this happen once (mania, paranoia, psychosis) in his 26 years of life and because of Paxil and the oddly enough, OVERUSE of what he already did without this happening - marijuana - could he wean himself off and be back to normal?Just, if you saw him now and knew him from before, this man is someone different. They wretched something inside him and broke a part of him in that hospital. When my mom and I visited there was always a guard and they said he was dangerous. But he always hugged me and talked to us happily if a bit drugged up, and we visited both visiting times and stayed for all the time each visiting hours let us.Does a psychosis mean you will always have psychosis, no matter what? Can he get off his meds, slowly and completely - could he manage himself well? He said to my mom and I that the only things he sees as peaceful now is death, because the pills are making him feel dead inside. I just need an answer, please.



Bipolar and Psychosis, please help!?

I am taking bupropion hydrochloride (slow release) as prescribed by my doctor for depression. The problem is, someday I feel normal and someday depressed (even if medicine is continued). I have taken this for three months so far. At present I feel as if I am extremely tired so that I can not even think any complicated issue. Is there anybody who had taken this and felt like this? Is it necessary to take vitamin B supplement with this medicine? I always have suffered side effects while taking this medicine, which include: tremor in hands, anxiety, etc. I am considering discontinuation of this medicine. However, I would like to know experience of others before that.



What are the side effects of Bupropion (Wellbutrin, Zyban)?

I've been on Wellbutrin for a few months now, and at first it seemed to be doing really well (mainly because I was comparing it to what I was on before--Zoloft--and I got control of my appetite back, which I had lost during my time on Zoloft), but now I don't like it anymore. I have extreme changes in mood on a daily basis. They are triggered by normal things that would upset someone, but instead of experiencing something on a small scale, it's like my brain jumps whatever emotion I'm experiencing up times ten... So if I'm sad, I get insanely sad and depressed and distraught, or if I'm anxious, I get debilitatingly anxious and paranoid, and even if I'm angry, I get so frustrated and just shut up in my head... I feel like I don't have control of my emotions anymore, and I hate it! :(Am I right in assuming that the medicine is doing this? I know for a fact that I've never been this emotionally all over the map before, and it sucks a lot of energy (mentally and emotionally) out of me.I don't have bipolar disorder, my moods have never changed like this until I got on this medicine (and specifically after it got bumped up to 300mg/day). Not trying to argue with you, just letting you know...



Anti-depressant causing drastic mood swings?

Ive been on it for years and find that im easy to tears. I have had alot of personal stressors in the last two years. Dr wants to add another med....lithium and Im not sure about it. I'm not bi-polar. Just sad and lacking energy and motivation. If you relate, what worked for you.



Has anyone been on cipralex 30mg and 300 Wellbutrin XL out there and find its not working as well as it use to?

I am using the patch, when I get really bad craving I chew the nicotine gum and I also take Wellbutrin (which is safe to use while pregnant). Every single time I see my boyfriend walk into the other room and close the door and I hear that window open I get the hugest craving for a cigarette.. the second I smell it I have to have one and there's nothing I can do to get my mind off of it. I may be able to distract myself for a few minutes but then I just have to smoke. It is all mental, I know this, but the anxiety is the worst. I was a heavy smoker before between a pack to a pack and a half a day and I have cut my habit in half since I found out a week ago which I am proud of but I want to quit ASAP and need some adivce as to what others have done to help quit other than the obvious or what I've been doing.. I need some radical ideas : ) Please and Thanx, I would be very grateful for any input!



I am 5 weeks pregnant and am having a really hard time quitting smoking, I've tried everything.. advice?

I attempted suicide back in 2004. I haven't been able to cry in the past 3 years. I have had 3 members of my family pass away over those last 3 years and, I have suffered through clinical Bipolar Depression, hard friendship issues, and my parent's divorce... to list a few. You'd think with all of this I would be able to cry, but I can't. I want to cry so much at times, but all I can get are watery eyes, and I can never manage to shed tears. At all of those family member's funerals, with everyone balling their eyes out... but I couldn't do anything but sit there feeling as awful as everyone else is, but I couldn't show it. I'm on medication, 400MG of Lamictal and 200MG Wellbutrin so my Bipolar depression is under control. I wasn't able to cry BEFORE I was ever put on meds...so it's not a side effect. When I get teary eyed, I keep trying to shed a tear...but it never happens. Look I'm a 17 year old guy, and I don't believe that BS that guys stop crying as they age. I don't hold back tears at all and I openly express my emotions, but I just can't manage to cry. Is there possibly a physical illness that maybe prevents me from doing so? I loved those members of my family VERY much...so it's not like they didn't mean enough to me for me to cry. And when I can't cry, I get angry about it...What's wrong with me?*I have been seeing a therapist for the past 7yrs. And see her on a biweekly basics.*I am seeing a psychiatrist. On a monthly med check basics. Or more often if needed.



Is there and illness that prevents me from crying? Why can't I cry?

I am on prednisone, albuterol, augmentin, and I take Wellbutrin. Out of nowhere I feel suicidally depressed and high, except not a good high. This is awful. I feel disconnected from the rest of the world and extremely sad... beyond sad. Does anyone have an idea as to what drug interactions may have caused this? I just looked in the mirror and my eyes are totally dilated. Like I said, I feel extremely scared and extremely depressed.



My Dr. prescribed drugs for bronchitis and now I feel like I am on a bad trip, depressed, horrible, scared:?

So I am on two medications right now. Duloxetine [Cymbalta] and Risperidone, but that is just right now. Over the last several months I've been put on Prozac, Seroquel, Citalopram, Clonazepam, Mirtazapine, Wellbutrin and Olanzapine.I feel like I'm losing my bloody mind. Last night I woke up after 4 or 5 hours and felt a way I have never felt before. It was like absolute misery but with no feeling whatsoever. Like I could have put a bullet in my head without thinking anything of it. It was weird. I knew something was up so I tried to just get up and go about doing some stuff casually but it wasn't working out, I felt totally detached from what I was doing, it's hard to explain. Either way, I just ended up going back to bed and kind of laid there for a couple hours until I nodded off, then woke up soon after and laid around for a couple more hours. When I finally got up I didn't feel the same as I did earlier but I still didn't feel right.Tonight I took my medication as I was supposed to [I take them both about an hour before bed] and an hour and a half to two hours later I felt weird in my head. Like something pushing on my brain. I ended up spending the night just kinda doing random stuff, carrying on weird conversations in my head and playing through these endless scenarios. Just pacing around going nowhere.Now it's like 4:30 am and I've gotten no sleep [not abnormal for me, but still]. I tried taking another one of the risperidone's because they're supposed to make you drowsy, but it didn't work [I know I shouldn't mess around with anti-psychotics but still, I want my mind to stop so I can sleep]. Im thinking tomorrow I'll grab some alcohol and at least have that to help me sleep [though I need to get drunk for that to happen].But I don't know what to do. I mean, my doctor isn't being a jerk he is honestly trying what hes got to offer to help me out. As far as I know I'm being looked at as having borderline personality disorder and that's why he keeps giving me anti-depressants and anti-psychotics. But with all the meds he's given me, I've made no progress in terms of being a more stable person. I've probably just been getting worse. For example, I've got a problem with self injury, and I'm not talking small cuts or anything like that. My left arm is covered in scars from about 15 third degree burns, I've cvarved all kinds of weird statements into my arms and chest, and I've got huge gashes [I mean, stuff that really should have been stitched up] on my biceps and back. I end up doing this when my mind just goes off into some other place, and it's like somebody else is doing it and they think it's a good idea. And this has gotten worse [I've been dealing with it for about ten years but recently it's kind of exploded]. Worst part is I can't let anybody see this crap, if they do, holy christ, I couldn't imagine my families response.But I don't know what to do. No medication so far has done anything, and now this crap I'm on is weirding me out like crazy. These meds are expensive as hell too. Nearly $150 for a 30 day supply and I've got no coverage and have lost my job so I'm living off savings.What do I tell my doctor? At some point this guy is gonna throw his prescription pad right at my head or something. There's no way hes going to continue tolerating my crap and the fact that I just seem to have either no reaction or a negative reaction to anything he tries. I feel like just going in and saying 'yeah, I feel great good work, thanks' and keeping on what hes got me on now. But chances are I'll end up hanging myself or something. This man is going to lose his patients with my crap eventually.I don't know what to do. Do I tell him and risk getting the boot? Do I just give up on getting any sort of treatment? Do I just deal with the endless flood of crap in my brain?I'm at a loss here, it seems I've run out of options.I am on a waiting list for a psychotherapy clinic. I live in Ontario [Canada] so I had to find something covered by OHIP [Ontario Health Insurance Plan] as I cannot afford to pay the $100-$200/session psychotherapists charge. Unfortunately it seems getting treatment covered by OHIP is difficult, this place has a minimum six month waiting list at this point so it will be a while before I hear anything from them.And just a side note, I'm 24, and unfortunately I was raised by a man who was a lunatic and a drunk so I can't really say there has ever been a time when I was ever happy or well rounded.
